Oktoberfest Events in Epcot?

[3CaballeroLady]

Hey, guys! I think I failed to mention this in my introductory post, but Epcot my absolutely FAVORITE park in all of Disney World. One of the reasons I love it so much is because the sheer variety of cultures, foods, and things to do. One thing that I've always understood is that Epcot is known for their cultural events. Since we're visiting in late September/early October, we're curious to know if there are going to be Oktoberfest events.

My husband absolutely adores German culture, cuisine, and of course, their beer. Does anyone know if there are any events? It's far too expensive to go to Munich (naturally), and we want to celebrate it at one of the best places on Earth. Any suggestions?

I don't believe anything specific takes place for Oktoberfest, because the theme of Biergarten is that it is always Oktoberfest.

Other than any special events for the Food & Wine Festival I don't believe so and as the previous poster stated it's always Octoberfest.

Yep, every day is Oktoberfest in the Biergarten. And there are real Germans working there if you want to speak the language.

There is a special show in Biergarten specifically for Oktoberfest. This show is only performed a few times per day, so if you want to see it, you'll need to find out the times as it's generally not advertised. The other shows are the same as usual.
